About Me
I love making things with my hands; I always feel such an enormous sense of pride in myself. And I love seeing that same look on the faces of people in my workshops, it’s what keeps me coming back to teach workshops.
My Favourite Things
Besides crafty activities, I also play golf. It gets me out of the house and allows my eyes to rest from looking at closeup projects all the time.
My Area of Expertise
“Jack of all trades; Master of none” best sums me up. I do a little of everything: sewing, embroidery, quilting, felting, print making, knitting/crochet etc! Recently, I’ve upgraded to a sewing machine that does embroidery, so I’ve been embellishing shirts and zipper bags for friends and family. But, my most recent project was a baby flip book with hand embroidered dinosaurs. So cute!
